This smoke-tests suite is a "template", containing pipelines, configurations, sample-apps, and scripts, that can be used to monitor the health of various critical Cloud-Foundry components, workflows and marketplace services. Check out this article for a more detailed overview of the project.

This repo has the following Components -

1. bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline - This deploys smoke-test-pipeline on the specific concourse/team paths that are dedicated for each CF foundation.
2. smoke-test-pipeline - Runs on each of the foundation specific concourse/team paths, contains jobs corresponding to every service specific smoke-test.

The environments directory contains foundations-specific param files and a common-params file. These files need to be customized based on the overall PCF deployment.

The scripts that test the end-to-end workflows involving various types of service-instances and sample apps that interact with those service instances.

These apps are simple light weight apps that are used by the smoke-tests scripts to test the app-workflows with service-instances.

This suite can be deployed on a multi-foundation CF setup by following the steps below -

1. Clone this repo and upload it on your organization's internal github.
2. Rename the directories inside environments/ with the names of CF foundations in your environment.
3. Update foundation specific parameters in environments/*/pipeline-vars.yml files.
4. Replace placeholders such as FOUNDATION1, with the CF foundation names in bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline under params section.
5. Update the github-url in the bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline and smoke-test-pipeline.yml files.
6. Save, commit and push the above changes in your internal repo.
7. Create or ensure the presence of the following keys in Vault or other secret-management tool (These keys should be accessible by the bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline) -

CONCOURSE_PASSWORD_FOR_{YOUR-FOUNDATION1}
CONCOURSE_PASSWORD_FOR_{YOUR-FOUNDATION2}

8. Create or ensure the presence of the following keys in Vault or other secret-management tool for each foundation (These keys should be accessible by the smoke-test-pipeline) -

- PIVNET_API_TOKEN - API_TOKEN to download products from Pivnet.
- GIT_PRIVATE_KEY - Private Key to your own internal github where you will host this repo.
- SMOKE_USER - CF user that should have `OrgManager` role on `smoke-org` and `system` orgs.
- SMOKE_PASSWORD - Password for SMOKE_USER.

9. Deploy bootstrap pipeline- fly -t {concourse-target-for-bootstrap-pipeline} sp -p bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline -c ci/pipelines/bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline.yml -l environments/global-pipeline-vars.yml. Unpause and let the deploy job run. It will deploy smoke-test-pipeline on all the foundations added under environments/.
10. Create smoke-org in every foundation added in step 2-3. Create all the *_SMOKE_SPACE mentioned in global-pipeline-vars.yml.
11. If you don't intend to run specific smoke-test jobs in the smoke-test-pipeline, you can remove those jobs from smoke-test-pipeline.yml before deploying the bootstrap pipeline.
12. Let smoke-test-pipeline run and check for params related errors. Once those are fixed, the pipeline jobs should run fine, unless there is a valid problem with the foundation.
13. In every smoke-test script, you might want to replace send_metric_to_influxdb at the end, with other result-reporter methods or comment it if you don't intend to export results. In report_results.py you would need to update the urls for metrics platform that you want to use.

1. Simply create environments/{new-foundation-name}/pipeline-vars.yml file, copy the params from any other foundation's param file and make the necessary changes.
2. Create or ensure the presence of the params menetioned above in vault.
3. Set the fly target to {concourse-url}, {team-name} team.
4. Run - fly -t {concourse-target-for-bootstrap-pipeline} sp -p bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline -c ci/pipelines/bootstrap-smoke-test-pipeline.yml -l environments/global-pipeline-vars.yml.
